This is a Crusta, a classic New Orleans cocktail typically made with cognac. This uses bourbon. It's so bright and delicious. David Wondrich, a legend in my industry, helped create this. #cocktail #bourbon

Something Blue cocktail. It's a cocktail that uses whiskey as its base and is an Old Fashioned riff that tastes of blueberries
